Traditional information devices and equipment systems are encountering enormous obstacles in complexity, cost and power consumption. In addition, CMOS-based chip technology is approaching its physical limit, and the industry is eagerly looking forward to disruptive new technologies. On the other hand, future chips will be integrated with various functions such as computing, storage and communications, and characteristics such as more varieties and shorter design cycle, all of which need to search for a new approach. From 2010 to 2050, the application demand for information devices and equipment will experience substantial growth, even though it has not yet emerged as the same dominant technical route on par with CMOS integrated circuits over the past 30 years. Related scientific and technological developments have reflected the uncertainty and diversity in the industry today.
